Fat Bastards

So just what New Yorkers need, more government up their (fat)asses. Honest to god, what is with this idiot Bloomberg, does he really think outlawing a Big Gulp is going to cure the obesity epidemic in NYC?

I’m assuming this means Mr. Mayor has cleaned up every other problem facing New Yorkers. According to the web sight www.nyc.gov in the first 6 months of 2012 156 murders,  rape 617, felony assaults 7526. It appears these activities may need more attention, do ya think Mr. Mayor? How do these stats compare to 2011... does it really make a difference? If your purely interested in stats and not the human factor well here is a chart from the same web sight.

ROBBERY    19717          7824

FELONY ASSAULT   18482 7824

BURGLARY   18720 7373

GRAND LARCENY OF MOTOR VEHICLE     9314   3205

Yes Mr. Mayor, obesity is sad, a shame, costly... but its no crime is it? I live in America not Nazi Germany. What the hell is going on? Have you outlawed murder? Rape? Assault? Grand larceny? And the rest of the seven deadly sins? It appears your old laws won’t work, really now, going after fat people. You may want to put more effort into saving innocent life. As far as I’m concerned... obese people for the most part, know they are overweight, and if they want to continue eating unhealthy let em. See the above chart to see your grand results. 500+ murdered... husbands, wives, children, and grandparents all victimized but don’t worry about that... start the cola wars. How about the 1400+ children, mothers and grandmothers, no I have not forgot rape happens to males as well,  that will carry around the feeling of helplessness and disgrace... you may have just murdered them too Mr. Mayor. Unlike the majority of overweight people that gotta supersize that burger meal, a rape victim did not request or ask for it but as the leader of the city Mr. Mayor who to blame for allowing the real crime spree, all this going on while you are worrying about the obesity epidemic. 

I was not going to write about this issue until last night when I watched a news commentary by a used up news man that has been passed from station to station saying how wonderful he thinks you are for shoving more government up our asses. Seriously, pay attention to real actual crime... or here is an idea you can use... outlaw fat bastards from living, working, or playing in NYC. 

Capital Punishment, Why Not?

I could never understand why the government allows murders, rapists & child abusers to remain alive and for the most part the majority of these criminals are living free among us! I just cannot see the grey in the capital punishment issue.


I was raised with some religion in my family and I do (to some extent) understand the sanctity of human life... but... save a murders life is outrageous. Lets be real for a minute, serial rapists, murders and child molesters will never be cured. Note I qualified this statement a bit. "Serial" (not Cheerios) criminals are lifelong members of that crime club. 


Government spend how much on them, legal fees, housing, food, clothing, health care and than endanger the life of every man and women hired to guard them. How much is spent on rehabilitation and chasing down parole violators. We cannot forget about repeat offenders now can we, what can be more heinous than a convicted child rapist set free only to destroy anther young life. So I want to know what is the payoff to keeping them alive? 


I'm unclear why the life of an innocent citizen is worth less than a criminals life. What do I mean by that remark, think, just think... government lets murders run free for whatever reason and I take that to mean the government and the bleeding hearts think the next lost innocent life must be worthless. 


I realize people with nothing better to do and catholic priests disagree with me. To them I say "get a job" and "hey Pope, stop hiring serial child molesters". I do not want to bring religion into this issue at this time but sometime in the future we will get into it. So again I ask "what is the payoff.


The criminals are winning, look around you, watch the news, open your ears, pay attention crime is rampid among us. According to the "California Nonpartisan Fiscal and Policy Advisor" the average cost to incarcerate an inmate for 1 year is $47,000.00 and according to the "NY Times" 04/23/2008 the US has 2.3 million incarcerated criminals, consider this... China (with over 4 times the population of the US) only has 1.6 million in prison. 


If my calculator is correct in the US the government spends 108,100,000,000.00 (one hundred eight billion one hundred million dollars) per year on criminals. Think about how many hungry kids could be fed or how many school teachers can be hired with just a fraction of that money.


If one of my readers disagree with my opinion all I could tell them is "I hope you feel the same way about preserving a criminal after one kills your mother, rapes your wife and has his way with your 6 year old daughter as the little girl is crying asking WHY DADDY"?
